Proposed Project

    PHS Supplements to the Application for Federal Assistance SF-424 
(0920-0428)--Revision--Office of the Director (OD), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC) is requesting a three-year extension for 
continued use of the Supplements to the Request for Federal Assistance 
Application (SF-424).

Background and Brief Description

    The Checklist, Program Narrative, and the Public Health System 
Impact Statement (third party notification) (PHSIS) are a part of the 
standard application for State and local governments and for private 
non-profit and for-profit organizations when applying for financial 
assistance from PHS grant programs. The Checklist assists applicants to 
ensure that they have included all required information necessary to 
process the application. The Checklist data helps to reduce the time 
required to process and review grant applications, expediting the 
issuance of grant awards. The PHSIS Third Party Notification Form is 
used to inform State and local health agencies of community-based 
proposals submitted by non-governmental applicants for Federal funding.
    There may be some revisions made to one or more of the forms to 
allow the respondents easy web-base access. This should not affect the 
current burden. There is no cost to the respondents other than their 
time.
